Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

You will play in an open G tuning so that means EADGBe will be XBDGBD
This song will be played in an open G tuning. That means you take the lowest E off,
tunethe 'A' string to a 'B'
and tune the highest E to a 'D'.
Now you have a tuning like this: XBDGBD, you can tune the lowest 'E' into a 'G' but that
is not original.

G Gadd9 G C
I saw her today at the reception,
G Gadd9 G C
a glass of wine in her hand
G Gadd9 G C
I knew she was gonna meet her connection,
G Gadd9 G C
at her feet was a footloose man

[Chorus]
G Gadd9 G C
You can't always get what you want
G Gadd9 G C
You can't always get what you want
G Gadd9 G C
You can't always get what you want
A C G
but if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need

G Gadd9 G C
I went down to the demonstration,
G Gadd9 G C
to get my fair share of abuse
G Gadd9 G C
Singing, "we're gonna vent our frustration,
G Gadd9 G C
if we don't we're gonna blow a 50 amp fuse"

G Gadd9 G C
You can't always get what you want

G Gadd9 G C
I went down to the Chelsea Drug Store,
G Gadd9 G C
to get your prescription filled
G Gadd9 G C
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
G Gadd9 G C
and man did he look pretty ill

G Gadd9 G C
We decided we would have a soda,
G Gadd9 G C
my favorite flavour: cherry red
G Gadd9 G C
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy,
G Gadd9 G C
and he said one word to me and that was "dead"

[Chorus]
G Gadd9 G C
You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want
G Gadd9 G C

G Gadd9 G C
I saw her today at the reception,
G Gadd9 G C
in her glass was a bleeding man
G Gadd9 G C
She was practiced at the art of deception,
G Gadd9 G C
I could tell by her bloodstained hands

You can't always get what you want
G Gadd9 G C
You can't always get what you want
